Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

"Not much. Everyone knows this man's character; he probably doesn't have money for drinks. Consider it paying to avoid trouble. Although going to the garrison could explain it away, it's still a waste of time, isn't it?"

The businessman, who had been frowning, sighed, but when he turned around, his face was full of smiles.

"Lord Nine-Tails... there must be some misunderstanding here. With so many people requesting missions, Konoha has a high completion rate, but the prices are also high..."

"Most people have this feeling of grumbling in their hearts, and Lord Nine-Tailed Fox must be aware of it too."

"Consider this a small amount of money as a token of my appreciation for your drinks. Next time I come, I'll bring you two more bottles of the Snow Country's specialty wine. How about that?"

Ok? ? ?

The little nine-tailed fox looked at the money in its paws with some surprise. It had only intended to trick the children, but it hadn't expected to be able to do it like this.

What did that blond kid just say to him? Was it that easy?

That's a lot of money, and you can even bring in specialty liquor?

"Cough cough!"

Boruto's cough brought Kurama back to her senses, and she quickly stuffed the money under her bottom, replying, "Hmm...you're right. Let's leave it at that for today, and remember to be more careful next time."

As soon as she finished speaking, the Nine-Tails grabbed Shukaku and ran off in a flash.

Boruto, looking disgruntled, patted the merchant on the shoulder and watched him leave.

……

On the high water tower, Yun, who had witnessed the entire scene, twitched at the corner of her eye.

"Where the hell did this thing grow crooked? It must be a different breed!"

Future Cloud shrugged and said, "Whose fault is this? Although he was taught by the Nine-Tailed Fox, it's our fault that the fox became a street urchin."

Uh……

Yun was a little embarrassed, then laughed again.

"Alright. Anyway, it seems to be more reliable than the original story. This kid knows very well that the supplier can explain himself if he goes to the garrison. He has a good grasp of the other party's mentality of being in a hurry."

Future Cloud chuckled as well: "That businessman wasn't stupid; his acting was spot-on. And the price of a couple of barbecue meals was enough to strike up a conversation with someone like the Nine-Tails... Heh!"

Yun asked, somewhat speechless, "Boruto's reaction when he first saw the Nine-Tails..."

"You guessed right."

Yun Hui from the future replied, "It's a common trick, a way to cheat and deceive, but it's all in vain. If I hadn't stopped her, Kushina would have tied it up and taken it back. Mother has also lectured her countless times."

……

Nighttime, Hokage Building.

Having just finished the initial contact, Minato rubbed his tired eyes, took a sip of water, and looked at Yun who had just entered.

That pitiful look in her eyes gave Yun goosebumps.

"Get to the point. It's a bit strange of you to be looking at me like that."

Upon hearing this, Minato put down his cup and said earnestly, "Kumo... why don't you become Hokage? It's too tiring! Shikaku said this situation will last for at least a few more years, and this is only the first day!"

Uh!

Yun was embarrassed.

The sudden destruction of the Daimyo's residence in one of the five great ninja villages, while leaving one or two who were still relatively intact, will definitely require Konoha to re-establish the rules.

There were countless meetings, both large and small; people were sent to liaise with the daimyo of the four great nations, to Orochimaru, and to make deals with the four great ninja villages...

Everything needs a beginning, and each one is related to the future of the ninja world.

We must maintain our position as the head of Konoha while also ensuring a certain degree of fairness. Only in this way can we ensure that everyone submits to force while also being convinced of our rights.

In just one day, Minato was already in a terrible state, but Shikaku said that this situation would last for at least several more years.

Well! It seems Naruto's sister probably won't be able to appear. It'll be good enough if she doesn't get blamed by Kushina.

"Um... should we call Shikaku regarding the information about the Otsutsuki?"

???

The topic shift was abrupt, but it couldn't diminish the seriousness of the information.

"Kaguya Otsutsuki's enemy?"

"It should be said that it is one of the enemies."

After the conversation ended, Minato's face was solemn, and the next second he immediately disappeared from the spot using the Flying Thunder God Technique.

When they reappeared, they had brought Shikaku, who was still assigning tasks.

Yun said somewhat helplessly, "Isn't this a bit too exaggerated, like the Flying Thunder God Technique?"

"Whose fault do you think it is?"

Minato retorted, "Starting today, I've already set up jutsu in every department to save time with the Flying Thunder God Technique. I'm probably the most overworked Kage in Konoha."

"I heard from someone that... you brought a kid to Konoha for sightseeing today, I'm so... envious!"

Seeing that the question had returned to this point, Yun quickly changed the subject: "That brat... speaking of which, he should be your grandson, Lord Hokage."

Ok?

"puff!!!"

Minato, who had just taken a sip of water, immediately spat it out: "What?! That brat Naruto actually dared to do something like this?! Hiashi's going to be furious! That bastard!"

Just as he was about to explode, Shikaku was still rubbing his temples, saying lightly, "This kid on a sightseeing tour isn't young, is he? Naruto is only thirteen years old, it's impossible!"

One sentence saved Naruto from a beating, which made Yun, who was watching the show, smack his lips, seemingly a little disappointed.

Seeing that the two were looking over again, Yun waved his hand and said directly, "That kid is from twenty years in the future. Oh, and there's also myself from twenty years in the future."

Twenty years later?

"Twenty years later, Kaguya Otsutsuki's enemy, Urashiki Otsutsuki, used the Otsutsuki clan's treasure to travel through time and space to our time period."

"Their purpose... is probably to kill me ahead of time, right? In addition, there's the Nine-Tails inside Naruto, and the little Nine-Tails drinking with that brat now."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shikaku immediately grasped the key point: "One of the objectives is chakra? Then what does 'one of the enemies' mean?"

Yun thought for a moment and looked at Minato: "In the twenty years from now until the Chunin Exams, there have been three enemies from the Otsutsuki clan, two of whom are already gone."

"He didn't tell me exactly how he was killed, but judging from that, it shouldn't be a big problem. As for the third one, it shouldn't be a big problem either."

As she spoke, Yun looked at Lu Jiu and said, "With your mind, you should be able to understand the relationship between the future and the present. Things that form a closed loop can be discussed, while those that don't need to be considered in terms of their impact."

"The main reason I'm telling you this is that that guy will appear in Konoha a little later, but we don't know exactly how much later."

"But at that level of power, a casual strike could cause widespread destruction. So..."

Shikaku nodded slightly: "An enemy that even the Goddess of the Rabbit fears... its life form must have reached the level of a cloud, so our role is not very significant..."

"So... we need to organize the villagers to evacuate to the shelter when the enemy appears, right?"

Yun replied, "That's true. On the other hand, I think Class 7 needs to face the future."

Class 7? ???

Minato hesitated for a moment: "Although there is no specific information, isn't it a bit too early for Team 7?"

Shikaku, who was standing to the side, also said, "Although those three kids are indeed very strong because of their special physical characteristics, it is indeed too early for them to face such an enemy."

Yun shrugged: "I'm not very confident. But my future self proposes that in twenty years, its power will have reached a level that I can no longer see through now."

Is that so?

Minato was still hesitating, and Shikaku didn't say much either.

After all, Team 7 is not an ordinary genin team; there are too many things involved.

……

Chapter 361: Kushina and Boruto

As night fell, the Hokage Building remained brightly lit.

Not just the Hokage's office, but basically most departments will be busy starting today.

Meanwhile, at the very center of power, Minato and Shikaku were still considering Kumo's proposal.

After a long silence, Shikaku asked, "From the future... It's almost unbelievable when you think about it from the other side!"

A simple sentence reminded Minato.

His trust just now stemmed from his long-standing trust in Yun, which is why he didn't immediately suspect something so absurd as to come from the future.

But as Yun just said, even he can't see through that guy from the future.

"Yun...can you confirm that he is truly you from the future?"

Yun nodded: "It's obvious that twenty years have passed, and the other party has reached a certain level. But whether it is me or not, we can still make a judgment."

The power of the secret scroll surpasses the concept of magic in this world; its power even embodies, to a certain extent, the rules themselves.

Even though he hadn't finished watching Boruto, he didn't believe anyone could know the specifics of the trading space.

Everything that happened in the ninja world can perhaps be glimpsed from memories, but no one can explore the trading space and memories of past lives.

"In that case... I support having Class 7 carry out certain missions; their strength is too great."

Shikaku rubbed his temples and continued, "Hinata's power, plus the potential for Naruto and Sasuke to generate the power of the Sage of Six Paths, these two factors will become the power that allows us to completely overthrow Akatsuki in the future."

"Cooperation is based on necessity, but when Konoha no longer needs Akatsuki as a sharp blade several years later, it will be time for them to end things."

"Another, even greater pressure... actually lies with these so-called Otsutsuki."

Minato pondered for a moment: "Otsutsuki Urashiki... If it's true that he comes from the future, then what Shikaku is guessing might be even more terrifying."

"With the same surname, the enemies are not just one or two. Although we don't know the exact number, if these alien life forms live on a planet like us and can travel between planets using spacetime abilities..."

The rest of the sentence was left unsaid, but both people present understood what it meant.

The Otsutsuki clan, or the Otsutsuki people.

How many people are in the clan? Four or five hundred? One or two thousand?

How many people live on a planet? Tens of millions? Hundreds of millions? Billions?
